The Renaissance of Gwen Hathaway by Ashley Schumacher

4.25

The Renaissance of Gwen Hathaway was SO FUN! I thorughly enjoyed this YA story and loved the renaissance faire setting in Oklahoma. Such a fun summertime read! Let me tell you, I could TOTALLY feel the stifling heat of the Oklahoma summer as I was reading it. It's a brutal heat, y'all, and in renaissance attire... no sir, take me to Montana! This story has tons of heart as Maddie is facing her mother's favorite faire without her this year. Maddie is closed off and has fallen into strict routines to get her through her grief. But as the faire begins, she happens upon Arthur and he has ideas for all sorts of adventures. It was a blast to follow along as Maddie journeys through hard things to find more of herself. 

The Renaissance of Gwen Hathaway by Ashley Schumacher is a delightful and charming read. It's out NOW! Thank you Netgalley, Wednesday Books, and St. Martin's Press for my e-arc!
